Select this check box if this supplier is a default back-to-back order supplier for this product at this site.
When generating a back-to-back purchase order and during bulk generation of back-to-back orders, the supplier priority level is cross-referenced with the blocking level to determine the default back-to-back order supplier for this product.
- The default supplier is defined as the back-to-back order supplier hat is not "blocked" and that has the highest priority level (zero level).
- If two back-to-back order suppliers that are not blocked have the same priority level, the default supplier is determined alphabetically by supplier code.
- If only one back-to-back order supplier has the highest priority level but is is blocked, the default supplier is a supplier with a lower priority level that is not blocked.
A back-to-back order supplier that has received a warning can still be the default back-to-back order supplier if it has the highest priority level.
For the transactions:
- The default back-to-back order supplier is the supplier defined at the product-supplier level if no supplier has been defined on the products-sites record, or the supplier is "blocked".
- If no default supplier has been defined on the products-sites record the default back-to-back supplier is not selected.
